Great idea with the shower sponges. Thanks for posting

This has inspired me to make more moss wrapped stones. I love mosses.

 

[Jeff.:P:.]

Here are more photos as promised. I think I'll be removing the purple bamboo and penny-wort as it breaks the field look. Or just keep the bamboo in the rear to create a backround. The subwassertang is taking for ever. I've added some local fissedens which are taking off and some moss's from Robert @ Aquabotanic.
Well enjoy

well I'm outa here, time for sushi look for my wife Sunny's aquarium which should be up tomorrow in a separate thread.

Great tank!

It really reminds me of New England brooks and whatnot in the mountains loads and loads of moss covered rocks, lots of leafy liverworts, stringy moss, etc. (and yes even riccia sometimes)

Very Nice

so you did keep some riccia. Looks sharp. I like that bamboo.

 

[Jeff.:P:.]

Thanks!
I think the New England rivers/brooks definitely did have an impact on the scape. I might pull the bamboo and the pennywort out, it breaks up the scape too much. But the Ottos and shrimp love hanging out on it. tuff call. Yes I did end up keep just one rock with riccia, who knows when I might want to cover everything with it again.
Thanks again.

Hi Jeff, anyway you can have a close up on pelia and subwrrastang?

Thanks

 

[Farmboy]

You might be right about the bamboo and the pennywort. If you want a taller element, mayby just a couple of slender branches of driftwood. Beautiful tank! I'm turning a little green myself. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Sunstar]

I'd say keep the bamboo in the back. Lose the penny wort. Send me both

 

[Jeff.:P:.]

Everything is growing very nicely I'm just waiting for some stubborn moss's and subwassertang to fully fill out before I release any up-close FTS shots. I pulled out the purple bamboo because it broke up the scape too much, but left the pennywort (it just fits somehow, don't ask).

In the mean time I have some photos of shrimps I took last night.

You can see the eyes on the shrimplets, there almost done! yay.

the other preggers

DANG! JEFF! Your tank is definitely and instant hit for me. Its so beautiful. I am such a moss junkie. With my tanks I have been using about 1-2 moss per tank, never really able to picture how all the mosses will work together, but you are doing a great job. Your tank is truly inspirational. I can't wait till all the moss grows out.

Fantastic JOB! Your tank, thread is definitely going to be one that I am going to have to constantly check to stay up to date.

Keep up the good work!

 

[Jeff.:P:.]

Thank's Chef! The subwassertang is almost fully filled out, so I should have some new FTS shots up soon, the tank is almost complete. It's really cool to see some of the textures of moss's coming together, I just need to be vigilant about trimming them. Otherwise they'll start growing into each other and become one nasty mess. I was looking at it yesterday and kinda reminds me of a reef tank, which is my next endeavor. :wof:
I received some new snowballs last night from Chris @ www.PerfectInverts.com. MAn, they look awesome. Stay tuned for pics coming this week. Thanks again!

 

[jeepn4x4]

Any updates on your tank? Maybe some new pics.

 

[Jeff.:P:.]

Yup. I'll try to post some new pics this week. I've started up the new reef tank which is taking all my time up. in a good way though.

 

[chadly]

so far that's a super cool lookin tank. love what you did w/ the bamboo and hydro... looks like the underside of a tree...

 

[Pinto]

That look so cool. Look like round bushes. Very clean indeed.

 

[Jeff.:P:.]

Thanks everyone. Moss from this tank is up for sale in the For sale forum!!!

 

[cclansman]

[ch3fb0yrdee]

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE please!!! I AM SUPER EXCITED TO SEE HOW YOUR MOSS TANK IS COMING ALONG! Keep us posted!
